In the Circuit Court at Davenport,
Iowa, Judge Brannon decided the Patrick
case, one Of the most intricate ever broue ht
before the Iowa courts, awarding to it's
father the custody of the child in contro-
versy, whose mother died in October 1886.
In the course of the trial 176 witnesses were
examined: James M. Patrick, the petitioner.
and Fannie A. MeManus were married in
st. Louis in January, 1881. Camille, the
subject sub OF controversy, was born Feb IS,
1888. Betore the marriage, and in con-
temptation Of il, an ante.nuptial contract
was executed, by which the entire estate
then possessed by Miss Fannie McManus
and any property which she might there
after acquire was conveyed to Thomas
Ward McManus, her brother, in trust for
her sole and separate use, free from aay
claim whatever on the part Of Patrick. and
free from any right on his part to the
estate by courtesy, as at the birth Of a
child. The contract reserved to her the
right to dispose Of her property by viii.
Shortly before Mrs. Patrick's death. and
without her husbands consent, she gave the
child Camille to her mother, Mrs McManus
Patrick sued for possession, the case COM
mencing in st. Louis. Later it was brought
to the Scott .connty circuit court The
estate Of the dead Mrs Patrick was left to
the child. \ s..

On the 10th, Assistant Secretary of
State Porter, called on the President and
formally rendered his resignation, which
was accepted. He took leave of the officials
and employees of the state department, and
started for his home in Nashville, Tenn.
A Washington special to the New
York Herald says: It is said that Gov.
Porter has rendered his resignation to the
President as first assistant secretary of
state. No reason is assigned except that
the duties OF the position are not congenial,
and that possibly the relations between
himself and Mr. Bayard have grown
trihe strained.
